I bled my own blood.
PLEASE tell me I’m not the only one who has ever clobbered themselves in the face when doing a “speedbag” move during an aerobics class. Because I totally gave myself a fat lip this morning in Turbokick. LOL But don’t worry, I didn’t let it stop me. I kept right on going!
This morning was AWESOME. First Zumba, then Turbokick, consider me wiped out! But then, once I...

Saturday Weigh In
Down 1lb this week! Gosh I’d like it to be more than that…but it’s better than nothing like last week! :) 6lbs lost total.
And this weekend I have A LOT of cardio ahead of me - today I’m doing Zumba & Turbokick back to back, and tomorrow the Y is having another Zumbathon fundraiser, meaning 3 HOURS of Zumba! :)
On a side note, my lower back is still SO SORE from...

SORE to the CORE
Never fails to amaze me how SORE my CORE is after Turbokick! Without a single crunch! All that twisting and bending and punching really engages those muscles, all the way around and even in the back.
Class was great and JUST what I needed at the end of a stressful day yesterday! Tonight I plan to do an abbreviated workout so I can get home and spend most of the evening with Jeremy. I’ll...

Headed to the Y to Turbokick my worries away! Would really rather Zumba tonight, but I think we all remember how Thursday Zumba went last time. :^/ Not really ready to give that another shot.
Besides, Turbokick will push me harder and I do need that.
WOWEE!
I have gained a SLEW (yes slew!) of followers in just the last few hours! I don’t know what the heck is going on, but I’m so excited! :)
Here’s a little bit about me, just so you don’t have to go searching for it. (Hmmm…maybe I should add a permanent link to that on my page, now that I’m an HTML expert. NOT! *hehe*)
Welcome welcome welcome! Can’t wait to...
Anonymous asked: Hi Sarah! I'm so glad you turn anon on! This is your fitblr buddy hoping you have a thrilling Thursday!!
I am a GENIUS.
I finally figured out how to add a fancy shmancy link to my Dog Blog and Ask page at the top of my Tumblr page!
ALL BY MYSELF!
I’m so proud, I can’t even tell you. LOL
HTML - I OWN you. *har har*
(Now maybe I’ll update my doggie bloggie more often, seeing as how people can actually FIND it.)
Fitblr Buddy Help!
So I’m extremely excited to be signed up for Fitblr Buddies…both to receive encouragement from an anonymous stranger but also to OFFER encouragement. I need some help though.
I was assigned a DUDE for my buddy! I’m not complaining or upset, but I admit I’m a little perplexed as to how I should go about this. I mean, if I was given a girl, I’d buy a bunch of cutesie...

If it's broken, you should fix it!
So the assisted pull-up bar thingy at the gym was ”out of order” last night. And you all know that I couldn’t/wouldn’t/shouldn’t even ATTEMPT an “unassisted” pull-up. (I’d probably dislocate something.)
I’d like to tell you that I was extremely disappointed and cried the rest of the night because of the missed pull-up opportunity. BUT...

Zumba+
Tonight before Zuuuuumba, I’m going to Core Express to work on ma abs. And before THAT, I’m venturing into the “dude” side of the gym to do various upper-body exercises, including the dreaded and hated pull-up.
Because, let’s face it, Zumba is a LOT of fun and burns calories….but it’s not enough. I need to do more. And I’m determined to gain...

What's with all the waterslides?
I apparently have some sort of preoccupation with water parks. They are featured in my dreams pretty frequently. (And isn’t dreaming about a waterslide EVER strange?!?!? *lol*) I also dream about amusement parks from time to time (Disney parks, in particular) but more often they’re specifically water parks with slides and wave pools. *shrug* I do like them a lot, but really? It’s...

I’m listed in Tumblweeds, a user-generated community directory that rates Tumblr bloggers by their level of influence. Find me listed in #dogs, #life, #weightloss
(I had NO IDEA what to list my blog under. Guess that means I’m all over the place with my posts, huh? *hehe*)

Better late than not at all!
Naturally, since last night was the first opportunity I had for Zumba in over a week since I’d been sick, we had an appointment run late. Isn’t that the way it goes? They came in at about 5:30 with a dog they thought was constipated (because of the way it was walking with it’s tail hanging down). Turns out, tail is BROKEN! :-O They have no idea how it happened, she’s an...
REWRITE
HAHAHAHAHA! Oh this is great. Rebloggin’ for Jeremy. I can see him doing this to someone. ;)

RIP Jack LaLanne!!! A great reminder to those that ARE still able to use our bodies. Why waste this gift? Move it or lose it folks! :)
Ready to take on the world!
I feel SO much better today, you guys! I’m still sucking cough drops to keep from coughing, but I FEEL alive and not like crawling into a corner and dying. That’s a good thing! *haha*
So very excited to get back to the gym. Mom and I have Zumba tonight - CAN’T WAIT! :)
On a totally different subject:
Yesterday was a sad day for Jeremy, who is a huge Bear’s fan. We were...

Boo hoo! :(
Just got an e-mail from TOMS…they received my return (because the 8.5’s were too small) but are OUT OF STOCK of the size I need! And they do not plan to make any more! :( There is some serious pouting going on over here.
I know I had listed like 5 different styles that I wanted, but after seeing the Silver Morocco in person, I was REEEEALLY into them.
Back to the decision board I...
Weigh In Saturday
No surprise, no pounds lost this week. But as I mentioned yesterday, I’ve been in sick mode all week…haven’t worked out a single time and even though I haven’t been eating much, I certainly haven’t been eating super healthy either.
Not disappointed, it’s ok.
And on the BRIGHT SIDE - I’m feeling better this morning! Still snotty and froggy but I...
Trying to cut down on the whining...
…since I seem to have done that a lot lately and I’m sure you’re all like “Ok! You’re sick! We get it!” :) So I’ll keep the health update brief: Still sick! *haha* I did finally get some nasal spray this afternoon and it seems to be doing the trick. (For the congestion from the neck-up anyway. :)
Jeremy worked overtime today for some training, so he will...

“Six-year-olds laugh an average of 300 times a day, while Adults only laugh 15 to...”
– Snapple Fact #831. Something to think about…. (via emphasisadded)
Probably why I have more in common with 6-year-olds than most adults. ;)
Bad News/Good News
Bad News: I don’t feel ANY BETTER! In fact I feel a bit worse because the congestion and crap has moved into my head. Sinus headache + drainage = nauseous. :( Probably missing out on Zumba AGAIN tonight. I’m so annoyed.
Good News: Today’s my half-day at work, it’s gloriously gloomy and cold outside meaning PERFECT napping weather. So the plan is as follows: Going straight...
WatchUgh, fake blueberries?? I’ve totally fallen for it.
fitnessquest:
The other day I made blueberry muffins from a mix with my girls. On the package it read “made with artificial blueberries”. I thought to myself… never buying this brand again. This video just confirmed that for me. Tip: Check the label before you buy.

Hey new folks!
I’ve gained quite a few new followers in the lastcouple of days. I’m so excited!!! :) I think some of you are just following me because I followed you first, but I’ll take that. No shame! *haha*
Anyways, here’s a little introduction to myself and my blog, in case you’ve come to the conclusion that all I ever blog about is cough drops and Zumba. (Because recently,...
